Aloe Vera/Aloevera Gel Transparent (Non Scented)
Taxes and Shipping calculated at checkout
Aloe Vera Gel Transparent (Non-Scented) is a cosmetic-grade aloe vera gel used in skincare, haircare, and personal care formulations. It's unscented, so it won't interfere with fragrance or active ingredients in your finished product — useful if you're formulating for sensitive skin or fragrance-free lines.

What Is Aloe Vera Gel, Exactly?
Aloe vera gel starts as the clear inner fillet of the aloe leaf — the part underneath the outer rind and the yellow latex layer (the latex is filtered out early, since it's the part that can irritate skin). That raw fillet is mostly water, so on its own it's a thin, runny liquid, not a gel. To get the smooth, spreadable, transparent gel texture people expect, the aloe juice is lightly thickened — in our case with carbomer, a widely used cosmetic thickener — and stabilized with a preservative so it stays usable rather than spoiling within days. What you're buying is genuine aloe vera juice carried in a stable gel base, not a synthetic gel with a trace of aloe added for the label.
Aloe Vera Gel vs. Aloe Vera Extract vs. Aloe Vera Powder — Which One Do You Need?
We sell aloe vera in three different forms, and formulators sometimes aren't sure which one fits their project:
- Aloe Vera Gel Transparent (this product) is ready to use as-is — a finished gel base you can apply directly or blend into other formulations. Best if you want the gel texture without having to build it yourself.
- Aloe Vera Extract/Distillate is a thin, water-soluble liquid with no added thickener. Best if you're building your own formulation from scratch and want full control over viscosity, or if you need aloe as an ingredient in a product that isn't gel-textured (a toner or liquid serum, for instance).
- Aloe Vera Whole Leaves Powder is the dehydrated form — light, shelf-stable, and easy to ship in bulk without worrying about spoilage or leaks. Best for long-distance export, or for formulations where you want to add water yourself and control concentration precisely.
If you're not sure which one your formulation needs, the gel is the right starting point for anything applied topically as-is; the extract and powder are better suited to formulators building a product from raw ingredients.
Benefits
Aloe vera gel hydrates and soothes skin without feeling greasy. It forms a light layer that helps skin hold onto moisture, calms redness and irritation, and absorbs quickly. It works well in face gels, after-sun products, hair masks, and scalp treatments, and it's gentle enough for sensitive or post-treatment skin.
How to Use
Use it directly as a gel base, or blend it into creams, lotions, serums, and gels. Recommended usage is 5–100% depending on your formulation. Add it below 70°C to protect the active compounds, and keep your finished product's pH between 4.5 and 6.5 for stability.
Formulating With It: Compatibility Notes
Because this gel is built on a carbomer base, a few general formulation rules apply:
- It plays well with glycerin, panthenol, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and most water-soluble actives — these are standard additions to an aloe gel base for face and hair products.
- Go easy on electrolytes and salts. Carbomer gels can thin out or lose viscosity when too much salt or electrolyte-heavy ingredient is added. If your formulation includes a high-salt active, test a small batch first before committing to a full run.
- Neutralization matters for viscosity. If you're adjusting the thickness of the base yourself, do it gradually — carbomer systems build viscosity within a fairly narrow pH window (4.5–6.5, as noted above), and going outside that range can cause the gel to break or turn cloudy.
- Patch-test any new combination before scaling up, the way you would with any new formulation — this applies to any base, not just this one.
What People Make With It
This gel base shows up across a wide range of finished products: cooling face gels and after-sun gels, soothing hair and scalp masks, gel-based moisturizers, aloe-based hand sanitizer bases, calming masks for sensitive or post-treatment skin, and as a lightweight carrier gel for actives like niacinamide or vitamin C in DIY skincare. Salons also use it as a working base for treatment blends since it's neutral enough not to interfere with other ingredients.
Ordering in Bulk
If you use aloe vera gel regularly — for a product line, a salon, or ongoing formulation work — buying larger packs works out cheaper per kilo and means fewer reorders:
- 1kg: ₹170/kg
- 5kg: ₹130/kg
- 35kg: ₹120/kg
- 55kg: ₹110/kg — the best per-kg price, ideal for continuous production
The 35kg and 55kg packs are popular with formulators and manufacturers who go through gel every month and don't want to keep placing small orders.
Storing It for Long-Term Use
Keep the container tightly sealed, away from direct sunlight and heat. If you've bought a bulk pack, decant smaller working portions into a separate clean, sealed container for daily use instead of repeatedly opening the main drum — this limits air and contamination exposure and keeps the rest of your stock stable for longer. Store in a cool, dry place; refrigeration isn't required but can help extend usable life further once opened.
Why Buy From ASES Chemical Works
ASES has been trading chemicals and cosmetic raw materials out of Jodhpur since 1942 — this isn't a side business or a recent dropshipping operation. We supply both small formulators buying a single kilo to test a recipe and manufacturers ordering in bulk for ongoing production, and our pricing reflects that range rather than assuming everyone wants the smallest pack.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same as scraping gel straight from an aloe leaf?
No. Raw aloe straight from the leaf is thin, spoils within days, and varies batch to batch. This product uses the same aloe juice but stabilizes it with a thickener and preservative so it holds a consistent gel texture and shelf life — while staying at 99% purity.
Can I apply it directly to skin, or does it need to be formulated into something first?
Both work. It can be used directly as a soothing gel, or blended into creams, lotions, serums, and other formulations at 5–100% depending on the effect you want.
What's the difference between this and your Aloe Vera Extract?
This is a ready-to-use gel with a thickener already added. The Extract is a thin liquid with no thickener — better if you're building a formulation from scratch and want to control the texture yourself.
Is it suitable for hair and scalp use, or only skin?
Both. It's commonly used in scalp treatments, hair masks, and leave-in gel formulations, in addition to face and body applications.
How should I store a bulk pack to make it last?
Keep it sealed, away from heat and direct sunlight, and decant smaller portions for daily use rather than repeatedly opening the full drum. See the storage section above for details.
